I use my holga and diana on a regular basis. I find I can get some effects with their lens that is very unique. I have "serious" images the holga or hassy may be used because of my feelings not because of techique.
All my cameras are my tools, and they are all used.

Frequently. My kit usually includes at least one toy camera (Holga, Diana, Altered Brownie Hawkeye or an assortment of pinhole camers.) Oh, there is usually also an Olympus OM of some sort or another. Bill Barber

To consider an OM a 'toy' camera makes me laugh. They are among my best cameras and I have more than 200. I prefer the OM-2n, but I have 2 M-1, 3 OM-1. 2 OM-1n, 3 OM-2 and 2 OM-2n. I also use a lot the Nikon FM, FM2, FE, FE2, F3, F4, F5 and F6, Mamiya RB6X7 Pro S, (had 3 Hasselblads but got rid of them); Mamiya M645, etc, etc
